"I was suspicious of the establishment at the time. You need to understand, I had grown up a welfare-dependent "half-caste" (I hate that term) boy living with his mother, escaping from a life of alcohol, crime and a level of violence that I would not tolerate for my daughters. An under-achiever, I was expelled from two secondary schools. I feel I had a reason to be angry at "the system".
"Then I became a father. It changed my life. I needed to be a responsible adult caring for a son, then a daughter – eventually seven children. We were young parents and wanted to do only the best for these precious beings.
"I read the pamphlet. It described "studies" in the Netherlands into communities that didn't look like mine, but I took little persuasion. I stated our second child, our little daughter Te Miringa, would not be immunised.
"At the time my wife Tracy was working as a nurse at the local medical centre and immunising children daily. Yet this was my protest against the establishment that I so mistrusted.
"Fifteen months later, we had a scare. Te Miringa became unwell with high fever and a body rash and the doctors were concerned as there was a measles outbreak locally. And I realised the information from the Netherlands did not reflect my reality.
"We got Te Miringa immunised."

Just put the phone down.
I have just had my 4th call in 2 days. I told the dude that if there was something wrong with my MSOffice package, they would email me directly so no thank you I don't want my computer checked .... He then said "Do you know what, you are a F**** Bi***" to which I replied "Thank You" and put the phone down.

This positive message is about celebrating what volunteers bring to their communities. It is important to recognise volunteering and the place it has in keeping our communities strong and healthy.
The benefits of being a volunteer are well-documented. There's better health and the feel-good endorphins that volunteering releases; around how volunteering can help with job prospects; and other health benefits such as extending longevity and reducing depression in many people. As poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson observed, It is one of the beautiful compensations of life that no man can sincerely help another without helping himself.
National Volunteer Week is a great opportunity to start volunteering or, if you already volunteer, it's a great time to invite a friend to join you. The positive message for the Week celebrates the joy that volunteers bring to their communities. It also reminds us that volunteers reap the reward of a happier, more engaged life because they feel connected to their communities.
“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.” — Elizabeth Andrew
I would like to use this opportunity to recognise the huge amount of work done by just over 100 Volunteers for the Christchurch Area Citizens Advice Bureau (3 Branches and 2 satellites). There is extensive training to start with and then they commit to on going training to keep up to date. I am in awe of the service you provide with diligence, care, sympathy and empathy to help anyone who seeks out assistance.

In the past 6 months, I have had a unique opportunity to learn about some of the things our young members are participating in. Many of these were on international stage, and some at the national level.
I share some of these with you through this piece. This is my first attempt at sharing these aspects of Community Board work with you.
1. A year 8 Cobham Intermediate student participated in International Ice Hockey Competition at Minnesota.
2. Five 12~15 year old students participated in different Gymnastics tournaments / training camps at Texas, England and Melbourne.
3. A 2nd year UC student participated in under-23 Rowing championships in Bulgaria, as part of New Zealand U-23 team.
4. A year 12 student from Avonhead will soon be participating in Softball international friendship series at Brisbane.
5. A year 9 Burnside High student from Avonhead will soon be participating in Kanga Cup football tournament in Canberra, as part of a Halswell team.
6. A 22 year old UC student participated in national bowls championship while another 16 year old from Bishopdale went to swimming nationals.
In the coming 6 months, the community board will get to hear their first-hand experiences from many of these achievers. I have no doubt that we will be interacting with some future medal hopes for New Zealand!
This part covers sports.
There are other achievers in other disciplines too, which I will like to share based on how members on this forum react to this post.
I welcome your feedback, either as a reply here or as a private message. Thanks
